DETAILED STEPS
Purpose
Command or Action
configure
Step 1
Enables IS-IS routing for the specified routing instance,
and places the router in router configuration mode.
router isis instance-id
Example:
Step 2
• You can change the level of routing to be performed
by a particular routing instance by using the
is-type
router configuration command.
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router isis isp
(Optional) Sets the time between regeneration of LSPs that
contain different sequence numbers
lsp-refresh-interval
seconds
[
level
{
1
|

}]
Example:
Step 3
• The refresh interval should always be set lower than
the
max-lsp-lifetime
command.
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-isis)#
lsp-refresh-interval 10800
(Optional) Configures the time between periodic checks
of the entire database to validate the checksums of the
LSPs in the database.
lsp-check-interval
seconds
[
level
{
1
|
2
}]
Example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-isis)#
lsp-check-interval 240
Step 4
• This operation is costly in terms of CPU and so should
be configured to occur infrequently.
(Optional) Reduces the rate of LSP generation during
periods of instability in the network. Helps reduce the CPU

Step 5
load on the router and number of LSP transmissions to its
IS-IS neighbors.
Example:
• During prolonged periods of network instability,
repeated recalculation of LSPs can cause an increased
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-isis)#
lsp-gen-interval maximum-wait 15 initial-wait 5
CPU load on the local router. Further, the flooding
of these recalculated LSPs to the other Intermediate
Systems in the network causes increased traffic and
can result in other routers having to spend more time
running route calculations.
(Optional) Sets the maximum transmission unit (MTU)
size of LSPs.

Example:
Step 6
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-isis)# lsp-mtu 1300
(Optional) Sets the initial lifetime given to an LSP
originated by the router.
max-lsp-lifetime
seconds

Example:
Step 7
• This is the amount of time that the LSP persists in the
database of a neighbor unless the LSP is regenerated
or refreshed.
